J and Ella's Holiday House has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a lounge and dining area, a kitchen and laundry and an amazing deck out the front. Each bedroom has a queen bed. A simple and comfortable home in the middle of Cooktown you'll have a lovely view plus everything you'll need for a great stay. Near the wharf, restaurants, bars and cafes, and the centre of town, you can walk everywhere: if you are travelling without a car this stay is perfect for you. The house is secluded and has amazing sunsets which are a joy to watch as you dine on the front deck. The back yard is level and green, with a family of wallabies who pop by in the morning. Short and long-term stays are available with corresponding discounts.
I live and work in Cooktown with my wife Lana. We're thrilled to be able to offer short term stays in the centre of Cooktown. The house is light and airy and very easy to spend time in. We're here to help if you need it and we look forward to meeting you.
J & Ella's House is set in a quiet neighbourhood, up the hill from Cooktown's main street. Leafy with a lovely view, the neighbourhood is safe, close to everything and friendly. The road is sealed and street parking is permitted. The neighbourhood is in the centre of town without the usual noisy distractions and happenings you might find in a bigger town or city.
